REVIEW: Yield by Sawyer Bennett

Synopsis

**Due to sexual content and heavy subject matter of an abusive nature, this book may not be suitable for all audiences.

Yield (verb): to surrender or submit (oneself) to another

Macy Carrington is broken. The strong, beautiful woman that I’ve unwittingly fallen in love with is all kinds of broken from a secret that she has carried for far too long.

A secret so dark, she has gone to great lengths to protect it.

A secret that I’m terrified will one day rip her away from me.

The only time Macy frees herself from the darkness is when she is naked and in my arms. When I am deep inside her body, there is nothing she fears. When she wraps herself around me, she is at peace.

If she would only yield to me completely, I know I can set her free.

* Yield is the final book the Legal Affairs trilogy of Cal and Macy’s story. Clash and Grind, Books #1 and 2, can be found on this retailer’s site for purchase.

 Review

Yield is the conclusion to Cal and Macy’s story, and it’s where Macy’s secrets are revealed..where Cal and Macy’s “filthy fucking” turns into so much more for both of them…and where Macy must decide whether or not she’s going to surrender to her past and continue to let it define her or fight through the pain and confront her “monsters,” never yielding to it/them again.  It’s the story where Macy tries to find solace in Cal’s love despite her deep rooted feelings of inadequacy…of being damaged beyond repair, and it’s where Saint Cal attempts to slay all of Macy’s dragons and prove to her that she’s worth EVERYTHING.

As much as this is Cal’s story and Cal’s perspective, this is just as much Macy’s, and even though readers don’t get much of her viewpoint, Sawyer Bennett does a fabulous job of illustrating all of Macy’s feelings through Cal’s tender treatment of her and his fierce loyalty.

I love how Sawyer portrays Macy throughout the series and the fact that Sawyer doesn’t transform Macy into someone completely healed at the end of the series. Macy is such a dynamic character; she’s fierce and protective, but she’s also vulnerable and somewhat weak despite the mask she attempts to continually wear. And, Cal is all sorts of sexy goodness wrapped up into one hell of a chivalrous man.

Macy’s back story is tragic and scarring and Sawyer is sensitive in her presentation of what happens to Macy and concretely shows the struggles and destructive patterns that can result from such heinous acts. Cal is Macy’s perfect shield in dealing with the fall out and I loved that he never backed down even when Macy tried to push him away; he remains steadfast, which is exactly what Macy needed.

Yield is such  a fantastic conclusion to Cal and Macy’s story…the sex is still kinky and hot, but there’s so much more to their relationship now, which is clearly shown in the final book of the series.

A complimentary copy was provided in exchange for an honest review.
